Sunny Side Eggs in Bell Pepper Slices

(1) Slice orange, red or green peppers whole about 1-2 inches thick

(2) Place the peppers in a skillet with a little bit of oil. Heat and flip so each side is hot and cooked just enough that it’s not raw.  You could also grill them.

(3) Crack the eggs into the pepper slices in the skillet over medium heat. One egg per pepper slice.

I actually separated the yolks and egg whites into two separate bowls. Then poured the egg whites into the peppers first to protect the egg yolk. Then I spooned one yolk into each pepper. Some egg whites may spill out from under the slices, but if you cut them straight, they hold 90% of it, just cut away any excess after they’re done.

I covered the pan to cook the yolks a little faster since these won’t be flipped. Just season with salt and pepper and you’re done!

I served with avocado slices and a little bit of salsa verde to spice it up.
